The Enigma
Aloof, secretive, and graceful, the Enigma leads a complex double life. Always there at the moment of need, only to disappear myste- riously when the danger has passed. Like any good act, the Enigma leaves their audience wanting more.
The Guardian
Patient, watchful, and kind, the Guardian looks out for their friends. They live by a code, and work to keep others on the right path. Guardians are fierce when their friends are threatened, and are never to be taken lightly.
The Harmony
Confident, earnest, and attentive, the Harmony is an inspiration to their allies. They understand the power of relationships better than anyone, because it is their power. The Harmony can be a booming presence leading the way, or lift other voices that have gone unheard.
The Outsider
Reckless, jaded, and combative, the Outsider has an antagonistic relationship with their allies. The Outsider is in the fight as much to prove their superiority as anything else. Though they’ll never admit it, the Outsider just wants to belong, and is nothing without their rival to square up against.
The Stranger
Deliberate, withdrawn, and perceptive, the Stranger can access secrets and knowledge that others cannot. This focus means that they struggle to express their feelings to others, though they often feel them very deeply. To the Stranger, the world is a beautifully complex machine to be approached with curiosity and ingenuity.
The Time Traveller
Ominous, strange, and full of impossible knowledge, the Time Traveller seeks to defy fate. They have seen a possible future, and that gives them a unique perspective that others lack. This can also alienate them from their friends, making it hard for them to trust that good things will happen without their direct intervention.
The Unlikely Hero
Hopeful, honest, and unproven, the Unlikely Hero does their best to keep up with their companions. They carry great potential within them, but will that potential be realized? They struggle with the weight of their destiny, and bear the hope that they will one day change the world.
